The Sir Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I like that Benetti points out that this is Gio's 5th career game with 9 or more strikeouts, but doesn't point out that it's also his 4th straight start with 9 plus Ks. He went from doing this not at all, to doing it ALL. THE. TIME. Awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gusguyman Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Gio is amazing, and so is James McCann's game calling. 5 Ks looking means he is completely out-foxing the batters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 He and McCann are now basically toying with the royals. The more they see him the less they know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxfan49 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Obviously Gio won't continue to be *this* good for his career but two aces, perhaps 3 depending on Cease, could be special. From "they only have 1 good SP" to "they have 2-3 aces" would be unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gio going through this Royals batting order like a hot knife through butter. McCann framing has been very good to my eye as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soxfan49 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 It's evident that Moncada is making a concerted effort of late to take a lot of his pitches to the opposite field and I love it 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donny Lucy's Avocado Farm Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 If Gio keeps this up, we're gonna have to start the Cy Young votes convo.... Amazing story from worst to first for him. He's in another world right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gusguyman Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Jose should have been safe at 2nd base I think. Looks like the Royal's player's foot left the bag when he jumped before the ball got there, and he landed way off of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
